Steam deck hasn’t sold that many devices compared to PlayStation, switch, or xbox. Wildly successful for what it is? Yes. Was it ever going to become a significant % of all gaming consoles? No.

It can handle normal paper sheets too

Fwiw I was avoidant of arch for a long time and took the deep dive a few years back. I’ve really not had to do any more debugging work than I have to with Debian (which I’m also a fan of and use).

EndeavourOS helps a lot with smoothing over the possible gotchas and my machines with it tend to run steam games (proton or native) out of the box the majority of the time.
